I still I can’t believe I was accepted. The second I stepped on Franklin Street the summer before 9th grade (my grandpa gave us a personal walking tour, no official visit at that point), I knew UNC was it, and I’ve been dreaming ever since.</p>

<p>General Comments/Congratulations/etc:</p>
<p>S is happy and is going to Tar Hill Tuesday to check it out. I believe he was accepted for his very thorough consistent record. Extremely well rounded with solid/high standardized tests. Few AA males on quiz and science bowl teams in most schools–even fewer playing classical violin for 12 years. Also only 1 B on transcript in 4 years (mostly A-s, lots of As and B+s) at a challenging school. Passion and dedication to a small group of ECs for 4-10 years. And lots of community service while working every summer since 9th grade. Love Carolina… CONGRATS to all those admitted. (excuse the editing…typing with a broken finger and removing all the spaces is a pain… …</p>
